Destiny 2 – We are currently in Episode Heresy, Act 1. Act 2 launches this Tuesday with a new mode called Court of Blades. It takes inspiration from Destiny 1 Court of Oryx. It has an augment system similar to what WoW had in Torghast. 5 new weapons are tied to this activity.
Guardian games also launches with Act 2. Guardian games has a boss rush mode as an activity.
Bungie had a developer stream last week going over Act 2, and gave information on new things coming in Act 3 which launches only 3 weeks after Act 2.
Act 3 has a mode coming that is basically what LFR is in Wow but for Destiny 2 dungeons called explorer mode. It seems pretty cool, basically a matchmade activity with a lot of markers and tips in game on how to complete the dungeon.
No organized guild activities, there are a handful of us still playing and getting together to run Nightfalls and dungeons.
WoW
In WoW news, the Liberation of Undermine Raid arrived, with lots of crazy mechanics and a big Vegas vibe. First boss Vexie and the Geargrinders make quite an entrance! You have been warned.
Raid Team Kiddie Aggro cleared Normal (Good night, Gallywix) as well as Vexie on Heroic.
Alliance Raid team Hell Froze Over downed five bosses on Normal – up to Sprocket-monger Lockenstock. Their progression Team, So Let’s Go Skating – picks up right about now with The One-Armed Bandit.
Noob Raid defeated two bosses – Vexie and the Cauldron of Carnage (aka Mecha Kong vs Fire Breathing T-Rex) and the weekly World Boss. Great job, Noob Raiders!
There is one wing (three bosses) available in LFR for those with gear level 606. On Tuesday, the raid will be available on Story Mode for solo players. You don’t get loot but can complete a quest for a nice crafting upgrade item.
Delves in Season 2 award a new customizable mount: Delver’s Gob-Trotter, and Bran can now tank, but needs our help after an encounter with a new villain known as The Underpin, who stole Bran’s hat and all our curios! Among the new curios are the Mechasaur EZ-Build Kit and Kaja’Cola Carrier.
There are two new delves: Sidestreet Sluice (aka what floor am on again?) and Excavation Site 9. Previous delves have some minor story updates, with goblin shenanigans.
And Dungeoneering Inc is 6/8 on normal. We raid on Sat nights.
WoW Classic
We have been seeing some more AIE traffic in the classic Discord channels which is encouraging. Nothing big in the news to speak of regarding the WoW Classic alternative universe.
SWTOR
See Game Notes
ESO

Live Letter on March 14th, 3 am PDT
Patch is expected to be Mar 25 but that will be confirmed at this Live Letter.
STO
Star Trek Online’s 15th Anniversary event is going on now with Garrett Command Alliance Dreadnought Cruiser as the reward. This event ends soon and you no longer have enough time to earn the cruiser for free, but you could buy out the event to get the ship. Many are hailing this as one of the better ships available in the game and it is our recommendation that you don’t miss this chance.
The Fed fleet is still just stacking provisions to allow folks to earn their fleet credits for use in the fleet stores.
The KDF fleet has been progressing along nicely. We just completed Tier I of the Colony, which allows for the coffers to autofill a little each day, which will speed up future progress at the Colony. The Spire is closing in on Tier III, which will unlock the elite tactical consoles. And the Research Lab is pushing the projects to complete Tier II, opening up some nice science consoles for doing space magic.
Fleet Action Report has just passed 240 episodes and started a new series on helping players new and returning from a long hiatus in relearning the game. We are not sure how many episodes this will take, but the goal is to try and cover the things people struggle with the most.
GW2
The next update for Guild Wars 2®: Janthir Wilds™ is ”Repentance,” launching on March 11.
Upcoming is the (currently unscheduled) Super Adventure Festival, which typically runs 3 weeks from Late March to mid April. A celebration of old school platforming with bright colors and pixilated graphics.
LOTRO
The 64 bit servers have finally opened and after an issue with character transfers we are getting the kin finally moved to the new 64 bit RP server “Peregrin”. Once they open up the housing and we get our kin house, we will have a kin house party to celebrate during SNL after the house is purchased. The spring festival also returns at 10am on March 13 and runs through April 1.
And with that, let’s get back to Corley and find out what’s going on in SWTOR.
GAME NEWS
There’s only 3 weeks left in the PvP season, so Warzone Wednesday will be mothballed until the next season.
